It's good. Pretty nose, smooth with good acid and tannin balance. Not the longest finish and need to let it breathe for some initial heat to wear off. Will pair well with many foods.

A nice high note of violets on the nose, along with a bit of dark fruit and some alcohol. Full-bodied and chewy on the palate, with plenty of tart dark fruits, some flowers, nice acidity. Medium+ finish. This comes in just a bit behind the lovely RBW 2009 Cab, but still very nice.

This just keeps getting better and better. Tannins have mellowed out and pepper is slightly more pronounced.

This stuff is really good. Not as bold or spicy as the RBW cab, but still a great bottle of wine.

RBW malbec is really starting to grow on me, note of ripe berries and tobacco. Medium legs with a long finish
